Continued Representation. Attorney has a duty to timely and fully complete all cases appointed to Attorney under this Agreement. “Timely and fully complete” means, for each case, continuing to represent the defendant up to and including the time of final disposition of their case whether by way of conviction, dismissal of all charges (as a result of a finding of not guilty or as a result of an empaneled jury being unable to reach a verdict), or a change of plea and entering of a sentencing. If restitution is not agreed upon at time of sentencing and a separate restitution hearing is necessitated, then Attorney shall represent the defendant at such restitution hearing in order to have “timely and fully completed” the case. Once appointed to represent a client, Attorney shall continue such representation until the case is “fully complete” as defined herein, unless permitted by the Court to withdraw as attorney of record.
